Moon Studios

Some time ago, the CEO of Moon Studios (creators of Ori and the Blind Forest) reached out with an offer. They needed a level designer for their upcoming sequel, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, and I was a potential candidate for the job.

I gladly accepted the offer. Ori is one of the many games I was able to enjoy lately. One can see the love and attention to detail that went into its design. I feel like I'll be right at home working with this team.
It's a pretty huge change in my life, since it's a full time job. But dreams are there to be chased, my family supports this decision and it could be the beginning of a new career.

I want to thank you again, awesome people that kept AM2R alive with your motivating words, your lets plays and reviews. Without you, I wouldn't be sitting here writing this post with a huge smile on my face.

As for my personal project, I'll keep researching and slowly expanding it on my free time.

What wonders await me within the depths of and awesome indie studio?

That is awesome! I love Ori and I love AM2R so now I'm looking forward to Ori's sequel even more.I've been following this blog since you put out the very first demo or something so I'm kind of proud of you, haha.

I've read the news article about your job position which is quite exciting, I'm wishing you the best of luck in designing some stellar levels for the next Ori & The Blind Forest game as I will be looking forward to it. On a related note, happy AM2R anniversary Milton!

Im so happy for you that your hard work is paying off (other than massive praise of course), but to an acutal company. Grateful to you an your team, never really got into Metroid as a kid but, the popularity of your game made me try it out and man i love it! Thanks for getting me hooked on a franchise I should have played all those years ago! I proud to say that your hard work was my first Metroid game =)

Man dude I was waiting for the day that your work gets recognized like this. I check back at your website just about every other day for any updates and this is something I really wanted to happen. Good luck out there and I hope you bring more memorable moments to whatever game you are to work on. I'll buy it right away!

This is awesome news indeed, not only for you (and Moon Studios), but for the whole scene of metroidvania enthusiasts!

Ori and the Blind Forest is one of the best obviously 2D Metroid inspired games out there so who better to join the team than a guy who spent 10 years of his life researching 2D metroids while developing a remake for one =).

I just recently played through Ori and that sequence where water fills a huge tree still gives me goosebumbps. Now I have another reason not to be able to wait for the sequel =P

Dude, you rock. I wish you the best of luck in all your endeavors. It was a blast watching this project evolve over time, and a year later, I still love all of the prior demos and the final product. You did a great job and should be very proud of yourself; truly a labor of love that made me appreciate anew one of my favorite video games again. Thanks!

Want to say great job on AM2R really come close to the real thing! I would like to donate but I don't find no way to do it. Hit me up with a link like that i could do so. Again congrats and good luck with your new job! Metroid is not just a game but a culture and we the gamer are the follower- Don't forget us.

Congratulations!Given how thoroughly enjoyable AM2R and "Confrontation" are, and the sheer quality that went into them, I will keep a keen eye out for whatever you help to make.

I'm not exactly an fanboy of indie developers in general, but supporting the smaller devs as well as the big ones is important anyway. And I'm always happy to buy from the (to me) big 4: Studio Pixel (Cave Story), WayForward (Shantae), Yacht Club (Shovel Knight), and you.

can we please make mods to work with your work it would be like the game zelda classic.fur the fans of the metoidvania game's.if done right we fun's can keep life to the loved series.and in making ned game wold's and scipt's as well new gear.for unique gameplay.that even nnintendo dose not have copyright too.i know you don't want nintendo being mad at you.but you gave this game a grate life as a fan to this and all metroid and metroidvaniad game's. it would help codesrs to pursue making new wold's for others to make.

As you may know already, AM2R received DMCA notices in all the download hosts, and some parts of this blog. So far, no C&D letter was received.
This project began a long time ago, while I was actually trying to learn the programming side of Game Maker. Instead of moving on with something else, when I learned a better way of doing something, I reiterated and improved the old code.Eventually, I learned to program in C#. Now I'm making a living as a professional programmer thanks to what I learned developing a fan game.
Technically speaking, I'm satisfied.
Artists started offering help. First with the main enemies, then with sprites, enemies, bosses.The forums started to come alive with fans making feature suggestions, and always being positive and optimistic about the project. I added new contents, trying to be respectful about the established lore. Demo after demo people liked the game. Then the game was out, and for a brief time, players enjoyed the game they were expec…

After a lot of careful deliberation and internal squabbling, we are excited to finally announce Another Sonic 2 Remake!

The blue blur has returned for his second adventure again!Sonic 2 was special to many people, and we have a soft spot for the second part of a bangin’ series. We are using all of our development and production experience to craft a rad remake of an awesome game. Now, our experience revolves around isolation and exploration in Metroidvania adventures. Some elements that we think Sonic should have explored in his glory days. It’s the time to revisit Planet Mobius the way it was supposed to.

Expect ever more zones by the time AS2R reaches a home console near you.

Gain new abilities and allies, who will help you reach new zones. Find the super secretly hidden Chaos Emeralds to unleash Sonic’s ultimate power.
With abilities, items, and powerups from modern Sonic games (and the classics) you’ll make Dr. Robotnik cry like a Metroid fan at E3.

Nintendo of America, Inc. has filed a takedown request under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). I received the request on my personal email, so I'm complying with their requests. There will be no more AM2R updates, and no more releases under any platform. Thank you for the support during all these years.
